Bible Note: EdB, When Daniel tells Neubchadnezzar in verse 38 "You are that head of gold" the usage of the word head seems to be anatomical in nature. The head was at the top of the image, therefore, the 1st empire had to necessarily be the head. I'm not trying to make Greece anything. I'm reading the story and, to the best of my ability, trying to see which scenario fits best. In my opinion everything in the book of Daniel points at Greece. Let's suppose for a moment that you're right, i.e. Rome is the last nation. Why does Daniel tell us about specific visions that concerned 3 of the 4 nations, and yet, doesn't even give us a name for the 4th? ateo |
